SCARLET"S ADVENTURE

Taken part 2

                 " Good morning Scarlet nice of you to come to work today. Your'e only like what; thirty minutes late for work" my boss Ryan gave me a stern look pointing a finger at me. " Oh come on Ryan it's me Scarlet; you know i'm your favorite employee. I was only late because i stopped to get you some coffee just the way you like it. Black with two pump's of cream; plus a fresh baked chocolate chip cookie to give you an extra once of energy". I added to simile at the end to really sell it off.

                " Oh, thank you Scarlet; look how considerate you are. I forgive you just don't do it again and everybody else, you should learn a thing or two from Scarlet over here to better your character". He announced the last part to everyone at the bar. 

                 Once i saw him finally head back to his office and close the door i walked to the bar and at on the stool.

           " How do you do it; teach me your ways" Janiya praised me from behind the counter.

           " I like to think of it as a gift. Ryan will believe anything if you just get him his usual and a sweet smile; man he is so easily fooled." I grin.

            " But on another note what about you and Chris why can't you give him a shot already and stop acting like you don't want him. He is sweet and care's for you. Plus, you can't deny the fact that he is hot as hellfire because i mean if you don't--"

            " Janiya"

            " what" She gave a innocent simile paying dumb.

            " what ever i am not having this conversation with you all over again it's starting to get on my nerves" i heaved gave an annoyed sigh. 

            " Come on Scar, you know i just want you to be happy for once and not think about the past. Not letting it interfere with your life anymore. We are not in that home anymore---"

             " I already said i didn't want to talk about it." Dame why can't she just stop bringing up the past. "Plus I don't need a man to be happy". After i was abandon at a orphanage at a young age barely remembering what my parents look like. Moving from different foster home's you start to not believe that anyone would stay, that once you get comfortable they will just remove the rug from under you.

            But some good did come out of it, at 16 I met Janiya in this foster home in Jersey where the couple would take away our eating or sleeping  privileges for little things. I had given up on people bye then turning me cold. But there she was just following me everywhere i go; turning my world a little less lonely. We eventually became best friends. At 18 we moved to New York even a job a club Live from Ryan whom i easily charmed with my wits and smile. Janiya still say's it was the fact that i was sexy.

            But at the end of the day the job payed rent and food bill's.

             " Hey can you set up floor so I can open the door's" Ask's Janiya sliding a shot of tequila to me.  It seems that she forgot our argument earlier. After drinking it down in one gulp i set the chair's down on the floor Getting ready for the day

------------------------

      At 9:30 pm.

        " Yo Ryan! i need to take a break; my finger's are cramping up" i shout over the music. Man we are packed today. I wonder what's the occasion even Ryan is a bit on edge.

         "Fine just be back quick".

       I squeezed threw the crowd finally reaching the bar spotting Janiya running around making people drink order's. 

          " Janiya over here!" i said trying to catch her attention. 

          " What are you doing over here you should be over there?" she asked gesturing towards the D.j booth.

        " My hands were starting to hurt. Plus i wanted to ask you if you know what's up with everyone, they are all acting off tonight. Is there something happening." i couldn't help but ask the weirdness is making me uncomfortable.

         " How do you not know that the boss is coming; Ryan said this yesterday. Oh what i know, you probably forgot because you were drunk and left with Chris" Janiya replied with a knowing grin. Just as Ryan came back over complaining what the hold up was. I took that as my queue to slip away unnoticed. Dame it i forgot to get my drink. As i turn around i bump into a hard chest. I turn my head up to see who i just walk into to. 

        " Hey watch where you are going asshole" I couldn't make out the face of him but he looked important.

          " And who may i ask are you?" Mr. no name said paying full attention to me now.

          " None of your f*****g business you are a stranger and you just pushed me; have you no manners!" Ok, i know i pushed him and should be the one to apologize but my pride wouldn't let me say those words.

          " Oh sweetie i believe you were the one who bumped into me isn't that right guys." He said turning his head asking his boy guards. How did i not notice them before.

          " Go get Ryan i need to talk to him about getting a new D.j these songs are trash." Ignoring my presence he started to talk to his body guards. But there was no way that i was going what he said slide with me.

          " Hey! d**k head i'm the D.j here and my music isn't trash you see everybody is having fun it's just you that not having fun. Walking around like you own the place".  By the time i finish my rant i crowd had already stopped as if on queue and the last song of my playlist showed. Ah s**t i'm in trouble if Ryan finds me.

            Ryan is not the one you should be afraid of darling". Said the dude at a pitch only him and i can hear.

          Ryan came tearing threw the crowd huffing and puffing but when he say the man behind me he immediately straightened up. "Boss" 

                " Scarlet why are you not back at the D.j booth" he fumed turning to me.

                " Scarlet here bumped into me and said some rather inappropriate words; not to mention this music that was just plain horrible. Is this the type of employee you like to hire to work here Mr. James". Oh s**t i didn't know that was the boss i am in deep s**t.

                " Oh i don't" Ryan replied in a cold sweat.

               " Ok, then fire her or i will fire you". With that the man walked up the stairs to the v.i.p lounge.

      f**k my life.
